...på tide, vi får et dansk stykke kulturhistorie, der er modig nok til at forholde sig til kompleksiteten.

It is a messy business, killing your civilian countrymen. Better a uniformed man, speaking another language, who hopes to kill you. And in a world of duplicity and disguise, whose motives are truly pure?
